DO IT DO IT DO IT DO IT

change does not come from a place of comfort

I find pennies and nickels in my couch all the time, so I don’t know what you are talking about

This will never not be funny

When my students talk over me I do this bit where I quietly tell them I’m really shy and to please let me talk and somehow it works.

Why did we ever start yelling at kids when we could just let them be part of a bit, which is a kid’s favorite thing?

"it's inscrutable" maybe to you it is. I scrute it all the time

i scrute the milkfish

"chekhov's gun" my ass. he used a phaser.

i do think the negative interpretations of "im probably nonbinary but i have a job right now" are kind of reaching. it's obviously a waste of time to theorize the op's intended meaning, so instead i think it's better to recognize how the phrase can be a useful framing device to criticize how much of a fucking hassle it is to get gendered correctly. "but i have a job" e.g. will face discrimination that could threaten livelihood; e.g. don't have the mental bandwidth to explain gender to others; e.g. don't have the time and energy for the soul-searching necessary to confirm. all three of these are labor issues. yes you could interpret it as "but being nonbinary isn't important enough to worry about", despite that being a blatantly bad-faith read. it's more useful to interpret it as "but being publicly nonbinary requires a lot of social effort that, in many cultural contexts, will create more problems that you can't afford to deal with". like cmon it's a really good jumping off point for productive conversations about queer labor rights
